‘Stocked’ to be a kitchen resource nationwide

Grand Haven-area residents Stacey Krastins and Sarah Kallio could soon be household names in kitchens across the country.
The Grand Haven Township women's cookbook, "The Stocked Kitchen,' has been picked up by nationally known publisher Atria Books, a division of Simon & Schuster. The publishing giant began selling the 325-recipe cookbook earlier this week.
